Individuals with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) exhibit varied responses to pharmacological treatments (e.g. stimulants and non-stimulants). Accurately promptly detecting treatment-related improvements, response failure, or deterioration poses significant challenges, as current monitoring primarily relies on subjective ratings. In this commentary, we critically evaluate the evidence supporting use of QbTest for objectively ADHD treatment in clinical practice. We also offer recommendations future research, advocating rigorous trials longitudinal studies further explore potential utilisation other tools individuals ADHD.

Stimulant drugs that boost dopamine, like methylphenidate (MP), enhance attention and are effective treatments for attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Yet there is large individual variation in attentional capacity response to MP. It unclear whether this driven by differences relative density of dopamine receptor subtypes, magnitude increases induced MP, or both. Here, we extensively characterized the brain system with positron emission tomography (PET) imaging (including striatal D1 D2/3 availability MP-induced increases) measured task-evoked fMRI activity two separate sessions (placebo 60 mg oral MP; single-blind, counterbalanced) 37 healthy adults. A network lateral frontoparietal visual cortices was sensitive increasing (and working memory) load, whose positively correlated performance across individuals (partial r = 0.474, P 0.008; controlling age). change within 0.686, < 0.001).

MP attention-boosting effects were not linked increases, but rather showed dependence on an individual's density. Individuals lower ratios tended have during sustained experienced greater improvement function task

The youth mental health crisis is exacerbated by limited access to care and resources. Mobile (mHealth) platforms using predictive artificial intelligence (AI) can improve reduce barriers, enabling real-time responses precision prevention. This systematic review evaluates AI approaches in mHealth for forecasting symptoms among (13-25 years). We searched studies from Embase, PubMed, Web of Science, PsycInfo, CENTRAL, identify relevant studies. From 11 identified, three predicted multiple symptoms, with depression being the most common (63%). Most used smartphones 25% integrated wearables. Key predictors included smartphone usage (N=5), sleep metrics (N=6), physical activity (N=5). Nuanced like locations stages improved prediction. Logistic regression was followed Support Vector Machines (N=3) ensemble methods (N=4). F-scores anxiety ranged 0.73 0.84, AUCs 0.50 0.74. Stress models had 0.68 0.83. Bayesian model selection Shapley values enhanced robustness interpretability. Barriers small sample sizes, privacy concerns, missing data, underrepresentation bias. Rigorous evaluation performance, generalizability, user engagement critical before are into psychiatric care.

Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) have shown that attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) medications significantly reduce symptomatology at a group level, but individual response to ADHD medication is variable. Thus, developing prediction models stratify treatment according baseline clinicodemographic characteristics crucial support clinical practice. A potential valuable source of data develop accurate real-world extracted from electronic healthcare records (EHRs). Yet, systematic information regarding EHR on lacking.

Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a profound neurodevelopmental disorder. Currently, the diagnosis of ADHD relies on clinical assessments and lacks objective testing. Research in electroencephalography (EEG) offers new hope for ADHD, with researchers actively seeking EEG biomarkers. This study conducts bibliometric analysis application aiming to provide brief overview characteristics, main research areas, development paths, trends this field. The Web Science Core Collection was queried June 10, 2024, gather relevant scholarly works from period 2004 2023. Analysis conducted using CiteSpace, VOSviewer, Microsoft Excel 2019. In past 20 years, 1162 documents qualified, swift rise annual publications. USA, University London, Barry RJ led productivity impact, while Clinical Neurophysiology topped publication volume citations. High-frequency terms include "ADHD," "EEG," "event-related potentials (ERP)," "children," "neurofeedback." Clustering key such as "cognitive control," "theta waves," "epilepsy," "graph theory," "machine learning," "neurofeedback" form cornerstone current core areas. At same time, series emerging frontiers are gradually emerging, including "theta/beta ratio (TBR)," "P300 wave," "neurofeedback," "deep learning."
